Back again! Catchin' up.

Stella here. Finally.
Been shut down th' last couple o' weeks cuz th' blankety blank laptop took a notion t' go t' sleep an' not do nothin'!
Harvey said maybe it'd decided t' hibernate f'r th' Wintah.

But we got it straightened out now. I still dunno what th' trouble was but our daughter Jeannie hauled it off to somebody she knows that works on 'em an' it came back good as new.
I hope.

Anyways, here I am. Some glad t' be back. I hadda laugh at how much I missed sendin' out these here posts.

Me an' Molly Eldredge is goin' out in a bit t' drive around an' look at th' trees. They's just about perfect up this way. I'll take a couple o' pictures an' put 'em in th' next postin'.
Moose Cove's had a couple o' frosts an' it's been real good sleepin' weather at night... you know, th' kind where y' almost consider closin' th' winda all th' way. But I just hauled out another blanket an' mashed up nexta Harvey an' kep' th' winda open a crack th' way we like.
Harvey said he kinda misses th' days when I was goin' through th' change o' life. He said I was as good as a hot water bottle back then.
('Course he didn't think so them hot Summer nights! But I expect he's forgotten that part.)

Me an' Molly's been some busy! Couple days ago we went off t' Waterville t' go to an education day f'r hospice volunteers. Molly's signed up t' be one an' she's tryin' t' talk me inta joinin' up, too.
Anyways, at th' end o' th' day we got t' see "Ida Who Runs With Th' Moose", also known as Susan Poulin. Wasn't that woman a hoot an' a half! Molly said 'twas a good thing she was wearin' her Depends cuz she was laughin' s' hard!
Th' thing that surprised me was that in th' beginnin' o' th' day Susan P. was also th' keynote speaker an' talked about losin' her mom t' cancer. She read outta a diary she wrote about th' whole fam'ly an' what it was like goin' through th' time her mom was sick.
I was mighty impressed! Who'd o' though a person c'd be so movin' AND so funny?
I'll tell y'some more about that later, but Molly's comin' over in a couple o' minutes an' I gotta get ready t' go.

Harvey's fine. He's got used t' usin' his readin' glasses, fin'lly. He's out seein' t' th' cord o' wood that got dropped off t'other day... stackin' it up so's it's easy t' get to.
We got one fine day t'day so we're takin' ad-vantage of it!
I'll talk to y' tomorra.
Love,
Stella
